It is the sense of North Columbus Friends Meeting that we are ready to nurture same-gender relationships by offering the opportunity of marriage under the care of the Meeting. We hope to provide the same loving care and consideration to couples requesting marriage, regardless of gender. The North Columbus Friends Meeting will respond to requests for marriage, regardless of gender, following the customary procedures of Friends.

Friends for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Concerns is a Quaker faith community within the Religious Society of Friends. FLGBTQC deeply honors, affirms, and upholds that of God in all people. We seek to know that of God within ourselves and others.
